Irish Rail

Several years ago around 2013/14 I remember a company making ammonia wagons as kits this was after the MIR kits of the 90/00s

Are they no no longer available? 

Cheers Wrenn

I'm delighted his work always top class and get delivered via DPD Parcel Wizard it's much cheaper

Some of the Port Services fleet.

Port Fire Service "Rescue 1" Appliance.

Harbour Police, Port Fire Service & Port Operations Officers & the Harbour Master on the fisheries quayside for suspected persons in the water.

Port Operations take advantages of quiet time in the lanes conducting a training exercise. Anti Collison beacons all running while on tracks..

New addition coming to the layout Port Fire Service fully lit Rescue 1 including Amber Anti collision beacon

Not much progress recently due to renovating the house being the priority

My good Michael Hand has been slaving on this beautiful example of a DVT which will feature in Fingal County.

With lights recently added and working it's a beautiful example of what's to come if the completed set with accompanying Mk4 carriages.

Irish Rail DVT Mk 4 Headlights

Rear Red Lights

More lighted vehicles coming soon to from Shedring Railways in Scotland.. including new Port Shuttle Bus

Absolute stunning work

Entry & Exit lanes for the port..

The whole area is starting to look busy,with plenty going on, without a train in sight,nice modelling

Thank hunslet, trying to use the details to help bring the layout alive just like in real life Great satisfaction trying to add the tiny details.

Ballasting and platforms coming soon so there will be more loco action

There was 3 of the murphy coal wagons on one of the facebook selling pages for a TENNER a few weeks ago, a very nice bargain if there ever was one .

as for hoarding stock whats wrong with it, it creates demand which in turn may lead to more models been produced.

I got them

Entrance to the port starting shape up including a Harbour Police vehicle checkpoint. Painting, road markings and lightings still to be finished.

New Pedestrian entrance added to Port Fingal including a turnstyle and Harbour Police Post for checking Port staffs ID Cards..

In full agreement there if there ever a reason needed

Absolutely gorgeous layout mate

Thanks Noel do love making a good scene

Irish Rail Operations Manager & Engineering Support Team on site today for the newest addition to the fleet a IE Windoff MPV.. Having been off loaded from a cargo ship overnight.

The ports cctv keeps a watchful "eye" on the awaiting train spotters awaiting her first run out..

Operations 2 provides a wide load/specialist vehicle escort to ports mobile crane.

Hi Kev,

I got them made by a friend of mine in Scotland.. He makes the lightbars himself I believe

The suspense...

The guard on the evening oil train brake van noticed fuel leaking whilst it was under shunt.. He notified the engine driver who returned to the siding and immediatly shut engines off. Irish Rail contacted the Port Control Centre and the ports emergency fuel plan was innacted... The new fleet arrivals were put straight into action.. Operations 2 or call sign Ops 2 monitored clean up of fuel and Harbour Police 'Hotel Papa 4' secured the scene with the Ports Fire Services Rescue 1 & Rescue 3 in attendance too.. Irish Rail also on site...

Always thought that too very similar liveries.. yea I like the idea of the terminus though it's small one it mean I can run different DMUs similar in & out similer to Rosslare Port station.

Thanks mate have to build the Harbour wall next and ive yet to decide what method to use to represent water.. which im still researching

I've built a small collection of scale boats to fill the waterline with and would like to build a small promenade and possible a band stand.. then some half relief buildings pubs/hotels etc.. to add..

I sourced a fitting building to become the passenger terminal building which is on the building list which will have usual bus stops and drop off zone parking like in any modern port.

Delighted with the progress with my layout and this section Port Fingal..We Built and added the first pier of the port 2ft x 1ft and my first waterline for some of my boats to go on. The pier will house the Passenger Terminal Building for ferry and cruise ships.. Tacked & ballasted the track for my first ever train station!!   the docklands station which is a single track terminus for DMU traffic..

A Arrow DMU passes an Commuter DMU on the Dublin - Belfast mainline.

Buildings on the quayside include the Customs House, Harbour Police station & No.1 Harbour House office block.

On the far left the Harbour Police Security checkpoint which form part of the Ports main entrance.

The waterline of the harbour/marina.

The footprint of the docklands station I still have work to do on the platform and ballasting etc..
